But, to be completely truthful, I am actually kind of glad that the Bengals have held onto McCarron to this point.  He is an awesome backup, and will be a solid to good starter, when his time comes. 

Looking back at the "big rumor", the one about the Bengals dealing him to the Jets for Richardson.  I'm happy that deal fell through, never was, etc.  Richardson for sure would have been a one year "rental", one coming off of injury at that.  If the Bengals deal him, I see it being an in-draft trade type of scenario.  Hopefully to gain good picks for next year's draft, as they already have 11 this year. 

And, if a great trade doesn't happen, no big deal.  McCarron is a great insurance policy to have in the hip pocket.
